    There are some bricks & mortar places too. Have a look in the recommended repairers section

    If you have serviced your car for its entire life thus far within the dealer network, I encourage you to continue to do so for another two years minimum. You're more likely to get a favourable outcome in the event of an 'out of warranty event' if one ever arises.

    Where are you in Adelaide?

    MRL Automotive - mobile (South)
    AVW - Torrensville (West)
    German Auto - Melrose Park (South)
    Volksfactory - Holden Hill (North East)

    I've personally used MRL, AVW and GA. All know their stuff and would be able to service a TDI Mk6 Golf.

    If you're thinking of getting a tune I'd be inclined to get the same workshop/person to do all the work on the car rather than mix it up as it avoids the (not-so) professional blame game.

    There's probably less options for TDI tuning. Both MRL and GA do tunes but GA would be an Oetinger and last time I looked at these they were pretty pricey.

    If you're looking at tuning I'd stay away from the dealers as they're really not that keen on modified cars. Though as you're out of warranty it's probably less of an issue.
